Hi SLAG, this is DocChuck.  I had drawn some unexpected fire when I shared concerns of silicosis in uncoated ceramic wool insulated gas forges.....I wanted to update you on the young smith's condition....

 I wanted to give you some follow up regarding the young blacksmith with silicosis from way back in January....he is awaiting further testing for some new nodules  that have appeared, otherwise the lung fields have progressed as expected in their appearance.   If no evidence of cancerous growth has appeared and he is still a silicosis patient, he will be awaiting heart lung bypass.   Given his age and health outside of the silicosis, he is expected to make a full recovery.   I do have a follow up X-ray that I need to remove his patient info for HIPPA considerations....Sorry about my prolonged absence, in that time span, I had lost my Mom and I finally am in remission from my leukemia.

Hope to hear from you soon, 

Chuck
